    IMAC PAU Extra Build 105" assembly

    Correct: there needs to be one, and only one pivot point: - The clevis on the stock hardware (or the H9 hardware that works the same way) or - The ball link Not both

    Frank Tiano, Candidate for AMA President

    Unfortunately, Rich Hanson has been very much pro-drones in the the AMA! He was Bob Brown's style AMA's mouth piece at all the hearings.....and that will not get a lot of our votes. Frank Tiano has clearly stated he would pursue a separation of Drones from AMA, to return it to traditional...

    Ordered my Su-26

    I just got a reply from the factory: they "forgot" it was Monokote, and use Ulracote Flame Red! I am not happy when they change something that was not spec'ed out by us, but that is what happened... Sorry for those I have unknowingly mislead into the wrong color.

    Ordered my Su-26

    The Sukhoi and the old Ultimate are the only planes where the factory used Monokote. I will inquire with them to make sure they have not changed any of it without my instructions.

    3D Viper 120cc ARF is HERE!!!!!

    Terry, The ability to program multiple servo outputs is another motive for people to use a Smartfly device. You still need to mechanically match the servos first. But is you Y connect multiple servos, it is almost impossible to match the throws. (some) Smartfly devices, or JR Match Box, or...

    3D Viper 120cc ARF is HERE!!!!!

    If you have the Smartfly with the programmable servo outputs, you will be able to program the servo centers and end points. The Fromeco Amp Meter is a measuring device, not a programming device. It tells you how hard each servo is working at any given point. The process involves programming each...
